Vampires! Undead creatures of the night who people also find really hot! If you think fancying a walking corpse is #problematic, wait until you see the actions of Vampire, the imaginatively-named vampire played by Martin Kemp in 1995’s Embrace of the Vampire. In Anne Goursaud’s film, he’s looking to get his fangs on an underage girl before she’s legal, just like [NAME REDACTED ON LEGAL ADVICE]
There are more tangents than usual on this episode, possibly so Graham and guest host Robyn Adams don’t have to spend any more time talking about this deeply gross central plot. Aside from the cult-icon-heavy cast including Jennifer Tilly, Rachel True and Alyssa Milano, there’s also room for conversations on Ace of Base, Charles Band’s financial woes and the sex lives of the Blind Dead. You are not ready for this episode.
